Sunday on TCM

10am - Mr. Deeds Goes To Town (#10 film of all-time)
4:30pm - Marty (8/10) - Only wished it was longer
I've never seen Marty...it's been on watchlist a LONG time.



Marty...teleplay shown on The Philco-Goodyear Television Playhouse (1953) Rod Steiger as Marty

(sorry for inserting the video, I tried to just insert the link, how do I do that?)

To make it into a link instead of a video, you have to change the "www" part of the link to "m". (I think that makes it a "mobile" link.)

How come I didn't know that? It works, thanks!

BTW I don't have a mobile device but I can still click on your link and see the video.

Anyway this is the first version of Marty with Rod Steiger. It's interesting and a bit different.

It will still work if you don't have a mobile device. I think it's just supposed to make it easier for people with mobile devices. I only know about it because that's the link we use for song tournaments.

Thanks, I'll definitely check it out. I like Rod Steiger, and loved Marty that it'd be really interesting see another version, but admit I would be hesitant if it was remade now, but would probably still check it out.



I probably would not watch a modern remake. Steiger's Marty is more pensive with a restrained anger. At least that's how I seen it. Where as Borgnine played it more down trodden and powerless. I liked the Bornine version better and Marty is a great movie....The earlier Steiger version is worth a watch, though the video quality is poor.

TCM
8pm - Witness For the Prosecution (6/10) - Probably my least favorite Billy Wilder drama, but still worth one watch.

10:15pm - Laura - I've never seen this movie, but I remember it being on a few people's Top 10.

12am - Klute - I have this movie, but just haven't watched it.
